She Married an Average Man

BY ZOE BECKLET

DENMARK'S THEDA BARA TAKES VACATION

It only Mrs. Pardoe hadn't left that Uny hint behind her about pretty Rose Green, whose "ways are more luring than her face." it Is like a grain of dust In the eye Just bothers and bothers without exactly hurting. And you can't find it You are not even eure it's there. Jim has been dearness itself lately. It is shameful of me to let any of my thoughts stray into little narrow, tangled paths of suspicion. Ah! what harmless gossip can do! Yet, on the whole, Agatha Pardoe's talk is not venomous. And she is an intelligent woman. What a lot of vivid human life stories she told me of Hammonds Corners folk! Is she right, I wonder, about it's being useless for a wife to struggle and struggle to keep her husband's interest from straying? I cannot help thinking of her quaint ly-expressed philosophy as I sit sewing on my sunny porch: "If a man is the straying kind he'll break away sooner or later. There ain't no use bustin' your rlggin tryin' to hang onto him!" But I think it is like telling a person not to defend himself against a thief. One fights instinctively. It is only a coward who alows a marauder to make off . with his property without doing anything about it. Every wife who loves her husband flies to defend her love from Intrusion as naturally as the needle's point jumps toward the north. The question is, how far shall she go? I have known wives who flung pride, dignity, everything, to the winds and entered the race for supremacy when another woman threatened to charm their, hu&bands. ; Sometimes they won; sometimes they didn't. And I have known others who shrugged their shoulders and either accepted r, the loss as an inevitable blow of Fate r or, following husband's lead, flung '' themselves into gayety to an extreme only a scorned woman can reach.

Which is wiser? I do not know. I suppose no woman knows until the problem is put straight up to her. And then each acts according to her own character. I often wonder what I would do? I loved Jim well enough to make the first move toward reconciliation after our recent separation. I wonder if I would love him well enough to marshal all my reserves of charm and wage a real fight to hold against another woman? I wonder- Is the wife who does that actuated by character or by selfishness? By love or by pride? Love! Poor, misunderstood, abused and counterfeited sentiment. Rarest on earth, yet such as it is the commonest commodity in circulation! Woman's greatest liberator and

her heaviest handicap! j The wife who has it knows life's keenest joy. Yet it is a millstone to her neck, a ball and chain to her foot

when she would fight her battle for "possession." Love ' paralyzes the striking arm. I see Jim coming in the gate. He stops to examine the buds on the Japanese quince tree and bends to look at the wee grass sprouts on his carefully planted lawn. "Hello, pussykittens!" he calls upstairs. "Been writing a novel?" "No," I answer with a funny shyness creeping over me. "I've been sewing on a very, very, v-e-r-y tiny garment! Look!" And I hold up a wee bit of fine linen that I've been embroidering In blue forget-me-nots. "No!" shouted Jim, flinging his hat off and gathering me and the garment and the silk floss and the needle and the scissors and the work basket into his arms. "Yes," I whispered, burying my face in his coat and spiling spools all over the floor.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl 18 years old and have been going with a fellow two and one-half years. I have begun to think of him as a very dear friend, and I think he cares for me in the same way, as he calls on me quite often. But he seems to care more for my friend than me, although he doesn't ask her for dates. He plays basketball and seems crazy for it, but refuses to take me to the games. I live in the country and he says it is too far and cold. Should I ask to accompany him or not? BOB. You are looking for trouble when you imagine that the young man cares more for your girl friend than he does you. If such were the case he would call upon her and not you. He probably is tired after playing a game of basketball and does not think it wise to take you home in the cold. Do not insist upon going with him. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a hard working voman of 42. I have four children of whom two are married and two at home. I live in the country where there is no work of any kind that I can do with the exception of a washing now and then. My husband, who is my second, a step-father to three of the children, is very lazy and refuses to give me a dollar for food. My oldest daughter helps me as much as .possible. I am in poor health and have been for some time. I went to the city and tried to make things meet, but it was absolutely impossible, and so I went back to the country. Where can I go with my two small children, ages 16 and 10? I can not live with my husband any longer on account of cruel treatment and non-support. I have no funds and no respectable clothing to wear. What I have was given me by my daughter, who has to work also for her living and support her child. UNFORTUNATE.

POOL WAR DEBTS, URGE OF ARNOLD

(By Associated Press) . MEXICO CITY, Feb. 13. Consolidation of the war debts of all nations Involved in the warld war, as well as outstanding trade balances which would provide international obligations guaranteed by all powers involved, was advocated by John H. Arnold of San Francisco, speaking before the United-States-Mexican trade conference here yesterday. Mr. Arnold, who is a representative of the American bankers' association, urged that an international clearingbouse be established as an adjunct to his plan. He declared an international bankers' conference should be called immediately and that manufacturers and commercial men of all nations be invited to send representatives. He said such a conference should provide measures for standardizing currency and for the elimination of exchange fluctuations which would result in the restoration of confidence. A spirited discussion followed Mr. Arnold's address, resulting in the adoption of motion for the appointment of a committee to draft an endorsement of the speaker's suggestions to be presented before the conference on Friday.

QUIT MEAT WHEN KIDNEYS BOTHER

Take a Glass of Salts If Your Back Hurts ot Bladder Troubles You. No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make, a mistake by flushing the kidneys ccasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which excites the kidneys, they become overworked from the strain, get sluggish and fail to filter the waste ard poisons from the blood, then wo get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, fteadaches, liver trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and urinarv

disorders come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or attended by a sensation of scalding, stop eating meat and get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate the kidneys, also to netitralj' the acids in urine so it no longerj auses irritation, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent Mthia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active and the blood pure, thereby avaiding serious kidney complications.

FEW FOLKS HAVE GRAY HAIR NOW

Druggist Says Ladies Are Using Recipe of Sage Tea and Sulphur.

Hair that loses its color and lustre, or when it fades, turns gray, dull and lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur in the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks dark and beautiful, and thousands of women and men who value that even color, that beautiful dark shade of hair which is so attrac-' tive, use only this old-time recipe. ; Nowadays we get this famous mixture improved by the addition of other ingredients by asking at any drug store for a bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound." which dark-! ens the hair so naturally, so evenly, j that no one can possibly tell it has ', been applied. You just dampen a ; sponge or soft brush with it and draw j this through your hair, taking one j small strand at a time. By morning j the gray hair disappears; but what; delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage ' and Sulphur Compound is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications, it also brings back the gloss and lustre and gives it an appearance of abundance.
